Visitors to Tiree may be surprised by the numbers of sheep freely roaming around various buildings in parts of the island (this one is the local Bank, situated near to the Coop supermarket in Scarinish!)
But this type of farming practice is an integral part of the essential agricultural economy.
Those who prefer pristine beaches (pristine beaches in the Hebrides) may have to search a bit around the island to distance themselves from the extremely close proximity of so much of the island animal husbandry! Myself , I rather like the peacefulness engendered by this typical scene, and actually find the process of quietly watching the daily routine of these placid beasts quite fascinating!
